An Athlete Got Her Period During a Race and Responded to Critics With a Powerful Message

“Not the most flattering photo of Emma, surely they can crop it a little better,” commented Xavier Coppock on a post where the athlete is shown finishing a race with a bloodstained one-piece swimsuit. It was at that precise moment that a long debate ensued.

On the other hand, Xavier Coppock is another triathlete who decided to comment on a photo of Emma that had been published on the official profile of the competition that took place in Spain. Among the images, she is shown running with a red stain on her swimsuit due to her period.

Although we believe that the athlete’s comment was not made with ill intentions, his words caused a stir online. For her part, Emma was quick to respond. In the same forum, she tagged him and dedicated a few lines to him.

5 days later, the athlete uploaded the same photo to her profile. In the description, she sent an important message. “Celebrating the amazing women in sport and the equally amazing men who champion them. Humbled by the number of messages I’ve had from both men and women about the unglamorous reality of racing on your period,” she began.

In the post, she explained the factors that contributed to this situation. Her light pink outfit was chosen so as not to attract the sun’s rays, and she rolled over her bike, making the stain more visible. She squirted water at the hydration stations, but it failed to remove the stain.

“This is a women’s sport and the more barriers we can break, the better. After a long career, you end up with a photo like this, but the idea of editing it means there is something wrong with it. I share it because there’s really nothing wrong with it, it’s a natural thing,” she said.

“So if you have a photo like this, save it, cherish it, and remember how you performed on a tough day because one day you might just be able to help someone else with it,” she concluded in her powerful message.

The original post was deleted, but we still have Emma’s, which she posted on her profile. This athlete gave us a lot to talk about — she managed to turn a small comment into an empowering message regarding menstruation. It gave us pause and made us think about the natural things we should stop turning into taboos.

Catwoman of our times: what a woman with an unusual appearance looked like before plastic surgery

When we hear the phrase “Catwoman”, we imagine that very attractive comic book heroine. But today we decided to talk about another woman, who is also called that.

Jocelyn Wildenstein was born in 1940 in Switzerland. As many of her acquaintances say, the girl had an incredibly attractive appearance: blond hair, big eyes and sophisticated facial features.

Due to this appearance, she often enjoyed success with men.

All her life, Jocelyn was looking for a status gentleman for herself. So she decided to try to find one in Paris.

The girl managed to find an interesting man who worked in the field of cinema.

Over time, he introduced his girlfriend to many people from this area, and she completely immersed herself in the world of glamour. Jocelyn suddenly wanted to change something in herself, despite the fact that she was a real beauty.

From that moment, her journey of transformation began.

When it comes to such changes, everyone immediately understands that it will not do without the intervention of a plastic surgeon.

It all started with the most ordinary braces, which were not supposed to change the girl much. But it frequently happens that the body is not going to accept such an intervention, so Jocelyn’s appearance has changed dramatically.

In order to somehow get out of this situation, our heroine began to position herself as a new Catwoman. She was not going to cause any admiration for her new look, and in fact no one was going to do this.

In the future, each attempt by Jocelyn to correct herself only aggravated the situation. Now she herself realizes that she did a great stupidity.

Today’s plastic has taken several steps forward in development, but this story is an example. Therefore, before taking such a step, think not 7 times, but all 100.
